Open-board chargers speed OEM integration: News from Lawtronics

New from Lawtronics are two ranges of sealed lead-acid battery chargers. Available in managed automatic and nonmanaged ranges, the open printed circuit board chargers are ideal for integration into OEM equipment. The managed range provides rapid step charging and operates automatically on a current-limited, constant-voltage charging cycle.

Batteries may be left on-charge indefinitely and the chargers will reform deep discharged batteries.

LEDs indicate the charge cycle, and the mains fused units are short circuit and reverse polarity protected.

The nonmanaged chargers can also be used as current limited power supplies.

They are available with 6, 12 or 24V outputs, whereas the managed range offers outputs of 6 and 12V.

As the units are open, they should only be used when suitably enclosed.

All are supplied with corner mounting holes in the PCB and have screw terminal blocks for the electrical connections.
